DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

Reference will now be made in detail to the present embodiments of theinvention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanyingdrawings. To clarify this invention, some details for practice may bedescribed in some embodiments. However, these details should not limitthis invention. In other words, the details may be not necessary forsome other embodiments. To simplify the drawings, some conventionalstructures and devices are illustrated simply.

FIG. 1 is a schematic exploded view of a wireless charging receivingdevice 100 according to one embodiment of this invention. As shown inFIG. 1, the wireless charging receiving device 100 may be, for example,a mobile phone, a laptop computer, a tablet computer, or a handhelddevice with a communication function. The wireless charging receivingdevice 100 includes a body 110, a metal housing 120, a receiving coil130, and a power storage device 140, and may include other elements suchas a processor, a substrate, a display element, and a touch inputelement (not shown). The metal housing 120 is coupled to the body 110 toform an accommodating space. That is, the metal housing 120 covers atleast one surface 112 of the body 110. The metal housing 120 includes anaperture 122 and at least one slit 124. In some embodiments, the metalhousing 120 has two of the slits 124, as shown in FIG. 1. The slit 124interconnects the aperture 122 and the edge 126 of the metal housing120. The extension direction of the slit 124 relative to the aperture122 may be changed depending on the design of the wireless chargingreceiving device 100. In FIG. 1, for example, the direction ishorizontal, although it may be vertical or any other direction.Moreover, the slit 124 may be any shape.

The receiving coil 130 is disposed between the metal housing 120 and thebody 110, and it prefers to be coupled to the metal housing 120. Thesize and position of the receiving coil 130 may be suitably adjusted asrequired. In order to simplify the explanation, the relation of theelements may be not drawn to scale in this embodiment. In practice, thereceiving coil 130 may surround and be close to the aperture 122. Thereceiving coil 130 defines a through hole 132 by a looped configuration,and the through hole 132 overlaps at least part of the aperture 122 ofthe metal housing 120. For example, in FIG. 1, the through hole 132overlaps all of the aperture 122, but this invention is not limited inthis regard.

The power storage device 140 is disposed within the accommodating spaceand is electrically connected to the receiving coil 130. Electromagneticwaves are able to pass through the aperture 122 of the metal housing 120and be magnetically (inductively) coupled to the receiving coil 130,such that the receiving coil 130 transfers an energy of theelectromagnetic waves to the power storage device 140.

Reference is made to FIG. 2A which is a current distribution diagram ofthe metal housing 120 and the receiving coil 130 in FIG. 1 duringcharging. Electromagnetic waves EM may pass through the aperture 122 ofthe metal housing 120 and may be magnetically (inductively) coupled tothe metal housing 120 and the receiving coil 130 respectively. Forexample, when the magnetic field direction of the electromagnetic wavesEM is vertically out of the drawing (shown as ⊙ in FIG. 2A), theelectromagnetic waves EM may induce a clockwise inductive current aroundthe aperture 122 of the metal housing 120 and a counterclockwiseinductive current in the receiving coil 130.

Reference is now made to FIG. 2B which provides a comparison with FIG.2A, that is, FIG. 2B is a current distribution diagram of a metalhousing 120 and the receiving coil 130 during charging when the metalhousing 120′ is not formed with the slit 124 (see FIGS. 1 and 2A). Ifthe metal housing 120′ is not formed with the slit 124, the inductivecurrent direction around the aperture 122 and around the edge 126 of themetal housing 120 is opposite to the inductive current direction of thereceiving coil 130. Therefore, the inductive magnetic fields induced bythese two parts of the inductive currents may cancel one another.Accordingly, the energy received by the receiving coil 130 may besignificantly reduced.

Reference is made again to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2A. In this embodiment,because the metal housing 120 has two slits 124, the inductive currentaround the aperture 122 may flow along the slits 124 and the edge 126 ofthe metal housing 120 so that the inductive currents of the metalhousing 120 flowing on two sides of the slits 124 are induced to formtwo counterclockwise closed loops respectively. Accordingly, the twoparts of the inductive currents form two inductive magnetic fields IMand the direction thereof is the same as that in the receiving coil 130(i.e., vertically out of the drawing). Thus, the inductive magneticfields IM contribute to increase the inductive current in the receivingcoil 130 and the charging efficiency of the wireless charging receivingdevice 100 is therefore improved. It should be noted that the number ofturns for the receiving coil 130 shown in FIG. 1 is merely an exampleand this invention is not limited in this regard. A person havingordinary skill in the art may design the receiving coil 130 having asmany turns as required.

Reference is made to FIG. 1. It should be noted that although there aretwo slits 124 in this embodiment, this invention is not limited to sucha configuration. In other embodiments, there may be only one slit 124,and the effect to change the direction of the inductive current wouldalso be realized with such a configuration. In other embodiments, thenumber of the slits 124 may be even and the slits 124 are disposedsymmetrically relative to the aperture 122. In other words, the metalhousing 120 may be divided into plural metal pieces so that thedirections of the inductive current in each of the metal pieces aresubstantially consistent, such that the object of changing the directionof the inductive current is fully realized.

In this embodiment, the wireless charging receiving device 100 may be,for example, a mobile phone and the metal housing 120 may be, forinstance, the back cover of the mobile phone. In this case, the metalback cover not only enhances the aesthetics of the mobile phone, butalso improves the charging efficiency of the wireless charging receivingdevice 100 by the design of the metal housing 120. Moreover, in FIG. 1,although the metal housing 120 is divided into two metal pieces by theaperture 122 and the slits 124, an insulating material may be filled inthe slits 124 or a tape may be attached to the two metal pieces in orderto join the two metal pieces.

In this embodiment, the wireless charging receiving device 100 furtherincludes a capacitor 150 which is electrically coupled to the receivingcoil 130. The capacitor 150 is utilized to adjust the resonant frequencyof the receiving coil 130. In other words, the wireless chargingreceiving device 100 of this embodiment receives the energy of theelectromagnetic waves by magnetic resonance (e.g., a resonant frequencyof 6.78 MHz). The capacitance of the capacitor 150 is adjusted by aprocessor in order to select the resonant frequency of the receivingcoil 130. When the electromagnetic waves of a transmitting source have aspecific emitting frequency, the resonant frequency of the receivingcoil 130 is adjusted synchronously to match the emitting frequency sothat the receiving efficiency of the receiving coil 130 is improved.

Reference is made to FIG. 3 which is an energy loss diagram of thereceiving coil 130 according to one example of this invention. In thisexample, when the emitting frequency of the transmitting source is about6.78 MHz and the resonant frequency of the receiving coil 130 (as shownin FIG. 1) is also about 6.78 MHz, under ideal circumstances, the energyloss is substantially equal to 0 dB. That is, almost no energy lossoccurs. Thus, the efficiency of transmitting and receiving is at anoptimal level. Therefore, it is confirmed that the receiving efficiencyof the receiving coil 130 is enhanced by adjusting the resonantfrequency of the receiving coil 130.

Reference is made back to FIG. 1. In this embodiment, the capacitor 150is disposed at one end 134 of the receiving coil 130. In greater detail,the capacitor 150 and the receiving coil 130 may be both fixed on themetal housing 120. The end 134 of the receiving coil 130 may beconnected to one end of the capacitor 150 in series, and the other endof the capacitor 150 is electrically coupled to the power storage device140. For example, the other end of the capacitor 150 may be connected toa spring strip 162, and the spring strip 162 is electrically coupled tothe power storage device 140. Moreover, the other end 136 of thereceiving coil 130 may be directly connected to a spring strip 164, andnot pass through the capacitor 150. The spring strip 164 is electricallycoupled to the power storage device 140. It should be noted that thespring strips 162, 164 are provided by way of example and do not limitthis invention. A person of ordinary skill in the art may select asuitable way to electrically couple the receiving coil 130 and thecapacitor 150 to the power storage device 140, depending on actualrequirements.

The manner in which the capacitor 150 is connected is not limited to thestructure described above. Reference is made to FIG. 4 which is aschematic exploded view of a wireless charging receiving device 100according to another embodiment of this invention. The differencebetween this embodiment and the embodiment of FIG. 1 relates to theposition of the capacitor 150. In this embodiment, the capacitor 150 isdisposed on the body 110. Accordingly, the spring strip 162 may beconnected to one end 134 of the receiving coil 130, and the capacitor150 may be electrically coupled to the receiving coil 130 by the springstrip 162. Moreover, the other end 136 of the receiving coil 130 doesnot pass through the capacitor 150 and is directly connected to thespring strip 164. The spring strip 164 is electrically coupled to thepower storage device 140.

Reference is made again to FIG. 1. In this embodiment, the wirelesscharging receiving device 100 further includes a receiving module 170which is electrically coupled to the receiving coil 130 and the powerstorage device 140. For example, in FIG. 1, the receiving coil 130 maybe electrically connected to the receiving module 170 by the springstrips 162, and 164. The receiving module 170 may be utilized to matchthe electrical property of the energy generated by the receiving coil170 with the electrical property which may be received by the powerstorage device 140. Accordingly, the inductive current of the receivingcoil 130 may first be transferred to the receiving module 170. Afterelectrically matching by the receiving module 170, the inductive currentis then transferred to the power storage device 140.

Reference is made to FIG. 5 which is a function block diagram of thereceiving coil 130, the power storage device 140, and the receivingmodule 170 in FIG. 1. In this embodiment, the receiving module 170includes a receiving matching circuit 172, a rectifier 174, a DC-DCconverter 176 and a power management integrated circuit 178. Thereceiving matching circuit 172 is utilized to match an impedance betweenthe transmitting source (not shown) and the receiving coil 130. Therectifier 174 is utilized to transform the inductive current of thereceiving coil 130 into a direct current. The DC-DC converter 176 isutilized to adjust a voltage of the direct current. The power managementintegrated circuit 178 is connected to the power storage device 140 andis utilized to transmit the direct current to the power storage device140 and manage the power transfer of the power storage device 140. Theelements of the wireless charging receiving device 100 shown in FIG. 1,FIG. 4, and FIG. 5 may be disposed in the accommodating space.

In greater detail, when the transmitting source transfers theelectromagnetic waves to the receiving coil 130, the receiving matchingcircuit 172 may match the impedance between the transmitting source andthe receiving coil 130 so that the magnetic coupling between theelectromagnetic waves and the receiving coil 130 may be improved. Theinductive current generated by the receiving coil 130 is subsequentlytransferred to the rectifier 174, and the rectifier 174 rectifies theinductive current into a direct current. The DC-DC converter 176 adjuststhe voltage of the direct current as required by the power storagedevice 140 and transfers the current to the power management integratedcircuit 178. The power management integrated circuit 178 transfers theDC power to the power storage device 140. The charging of the wirelesscharging receiving device 100 is completed through such a process. Itshould be noted that when the wireless charging receiving device 100needs to use the power, the power management integrated circuit 178 maytransfer the power from the power storage device 140 to other elements.The power management integrated circuit 178 functions to manage thepower transfer of the power storage device 140 and prevent overcharging.However, in other embodiments, before the DC current is transferred tothe power storage device 140 by the power management integrated circuit178, the DC current may be first stored in a temporary power storagedevice (not shown). The power in the temporary power storage device maythen be transferred to the power storage device 140 in response toreceiving instructions from the power management integrated circuit 178to thereby complete the charging process. The temporary power storagedevice may be disposed in the receiving module 170 or may be independentfrom the receiving module 170. The temporary power storage device iselectrically coupled between the power management integrated circuit 178and the power storage device 140.

Reference is made again to FIG. 1. The wireless charging receivingdevice 100 further includes a camera module 190 which is disposed on thebody 110 and corresponds in position to the aperture 122 of the metalhousing 120. In other words, the lens of the camera module 190 may beexposed by the aperture 122. Accordingly, it is not necessary for themetal housing 120 to be designed with an extra aperture. However, thecamera module 190 is merely example, and in other embodiments, theaperture 122 may be disposed to expose any element, and this inventionis not limited to such a structure.

Another aspect of this invention is to provide a wireless chargingsystem using the wireless charging receiving device 100 above. Referenceis made to FIG. 6 which is a function block diagram of a wirelesscharging system according to one embodiment of this invention. Thewireless charging system includes a wireless charging transmittingdevice 200 and the wireless charging receiving device 100. The wirelesscharging transmitting device 200 is utilized to provide theelectromagnetic waves. In other words, the wireless chargingtransmitting device 200 is capable of transforming power intoelectromagnetic waves, after which the wireless charging transmittingdevice transfer the electromagnetic waves to the wireless chargingreceiving device 100 to charge the wireless charging receiving device100.

In this embodiment, the wireless charging transmitting device 200includes a power supply 210 and a transmitting coil 220. The powersupply 210 is utilized to provide an electrical energy. The transmittingcoil 220 is utilized to transform the electrical energy into theelectromagnetic waves. In greater detail, the electrical energy providedby the power supply 210 is transferred to the transmitting coil 220 incurrent form. The current in the transmitting coil 220 may induce aninductive magnetic field. The inductive magnetic field is transmitted inelectromagnetic wave form. The receiving coil 130 of the wirelesscharging receiving device 100 is magnetically coupled to theelectromagnetic waves to charge the wireless charging receiving device100.

In order to transform the electrical power provided by the power supply210 into electromagnetic waves in a specific format so that theelectromagnetic waves are easily magnetically coupled to the receivingcoil 130, the wireless charging transmitting device 200 may furtherinclude a transmitting module 230 which is electrically coupled to thepower supply 210 and the transmitting coil 220. The transmitting module230 includes an amplifier 232 and a transmitting matching circuit 234.The amplifier 232 is utilized to amplify the power provided by the powersupply 210. The transmitting matching circuit 234 is utilized to matchan impedance between the transmitting coil 220 and the receiving coil130.

In greater detail, the electrical energy provided by the power supply210 may be, for example, transferred to the amplifier 232 in currentform. Thus, the amplifier 232 may amplify the current to increase thepower so that the wireless charging transmitting device 200 easilyperforms far distance transmission. The current is then transferred tothe transmitting matching circuit 234, and the transmitting matchingcircuit 234 may match the impedance between the transmitting coil 220and the receiving coil 130. Accordingly, the magnetic coupling betweenthe electromagnetic waves generated by the transmitting coil 220 and thereceiving coil 130 is enhanced. The current is transferred to thetransmitting coil 220 and the electromagnetic waves are induced.

In one or more embodiments, signal communication may be performedbetween the wireless charging transmitting device 200 and the wirelesscharging receiving device 100 to determine whether the wireless chargingtransmitting device 200 charges the wireless charging receiving device100. In greater detail, the transmitting module 230 of the wirelesscharging transmitting device 200 further includes a transmittingtransceiver 236 and a transmitting control unit 238. The transmittingtransceiver 236 is utilized to communicate with the wireless chargingreceiving device 100. The transmitting control unit 238 is electricallycoupled to the transmitting transceiver 236. The transmitting controlunit 238 controls the on/off state of the power supply 210 according tothe charging status of the wireless charging receiving device 100.Moreover, the receiving module 170 of the wireless charging receivingdevice 100 may further include a receiving transceiver 182 and areceiving control unit 184. The receiving transceiver 182 is utilized tocommunicate with the transmitting transceiver 236 of the wirelesscharging transmitting device 200. The receiving control unit 184 iselectrically coupled to the receiving transceiver 182 and the DC-DCconverter 176. The receiving control unit 184 obtains the chargingstatus of the power storage device 140 from the DC-DC converter 176 andtransmits a signal of the charging status to the transmittingtransceiver 236. However, in other embodiments, the receiving controlunit 184 may obtain the charging status of the power storage device 140from the power management integrated circuit 178, and this invention isnot limited in this regard.

For example, when the wireless charging receiving device 100 needs to becharged, the power management integrated circuit 178 may transmit thecharging requirement to the receiving control unit 184 through the DC-DCconverter 176. The charging requirement may be transmitted to receivingtransceiver 182, the transmitting transceiver 236, and the transmittingcontrol unit 238 in sequence. Accordingly, the transmitting control unit238 outputs a command to turn on the power supply 210 so that thewireless charging transmitting device 200 generates the electromagneticwaves to charge the wireless charging receiving device 100.

When the power storage device 140 of the wireless charging receivingdevice 100 is fully charged, the power management integrated circuit 178may transmit a shutdown requirement to the receiving control unit 184through the DC-DC converter 176. The shutdown requirement may betransmitted to the transmitting control unit 238 through the pathmentioned above. Accordingly, the transmitting control unit 238 outputsa command to turn off the power supply 210 so that the wireless chargingtransmitting device 200 stops generating the electromagnetic waves.Charging of the wireless charging receiving device 100 is completedthrough such a process. Moreover, when the wireless charging receivingdevice 100 is placed close to the wireless charging transmitting device200 in a state where the wireless charging receiving device 100 does nothave a charging requirement, the wireless charging receiving device 100may transmit a shutdown requirement to the wireless chargingtransmitting device 200 so that the wireless charging transmittingdevice 200 does not generate electromagnetic waves

In this embodiment, the wireless charging transmitting device 200 mayfurther include a capacitor 240 which is electrically coupled to thetransmitting coil 220 to adjust an emitting frequency of thetransmitting coil 220. In other words, in this embodiment, the wirelesscharging transmitting device 200 may generate electromagnetic waves witha specific emitting frequency. The emitting frequency of thetransmitting coil 220 may be selected by changing the capacitance of thecapacitor 240. Furthermore, the wireless charging receiving device 100may include the capacitor 150 to adjust the resonant frequency of thereceiving coil 130. When the resonant frequency of the receiving coil130 is the same as the emitting frequency of the electromagnetic wavesgenerated by the wireless charging transmitting device 200, the resonanteffect occurs so that the energy coupling therebetween is increased. Inthis embodiment, the resonant frequency can be configured at 6.78 MHzwhich is the magnetic resonant frequency established by Alliance forWireless Power (A4WP). Reference is made to FIG. 3 again. The emittingfrequency generated by the wireless charging transmitting device 200 isbetween 0 and 10 MHz. In other words, energy transfer and receptionbetween the wireless charging transmitting device 200 and the wirelesscharging receiving device 100 may be operated within such a frequencyrange. However, the efficiency may depend on the operation frequency.

Reference is made to FIG. 6. In another embodiment, the wirelesscharging receiving device 100 may omit the capacitor 150 from theconfiguration thereof, and thus the operation frequency of the receivingcoil 130 is not adjusted synchronously according to the resonantfrequency of the wireless charging transmitting device 200. The energyis still transferred and received between the wireless chargingtransmitting device 200 and the wireless charging receiving device 100,and the receiving coil 130 of the wireless charging receiving device 100is magnetically coupled to the electromagnetic waves by the magneticinduction. Because of the capacitor 240, the operation frequency of thewireless charging transmitting device 200 can be set as 6.78 MHz toimprove the charging efficiency. In yet another embodiment, thecapacitor 240 may be omitted from the configuration of the wirelesscharging transmitting device 200 and the emitting frequency of thetransmitting coil 220 is between 0 and 10 MHz. The wireless chargingreceiving device 100 may include the capacitor 150 in such anembodiment, and the resonant frequency of the receiving coil 130 may beadjusted to be the same as the emitting frequency of the transmittingcoil 220. The receiving coil 130 may be magnetically coupled to theelectromagnetic waves in a magnetically resonant manner. For example, ifthe emitting frequency of the transmitting coil 220 is 8 MHz, theresonant frequency of the receiving coil 130 may be adjusted to 8 MHz.If the emitting frequency of the transmitting coil 220 approaches 6.78MHz, the resonant frequency of the receiving coil 130 may also beadjusted to 6.78 Mhz so that the best charging efficiency may beaccomplished. That is, when one of the wireless charging receivingdevice 100 and the wireless charging transmitting device 200 includesthe capacitor 150 and/or the capacitor 240, the magnetic couplingbetween the wireless charging receiving device 100 and the wirelesscharging transmitting device 200 may be improved.
